Jackson walking on wall. https://www.google.com/search?q=bo+jackson+scales+wall&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS1097US1097&oq=bo+jackson+scales+wall&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yCAgCEAAYFhgeMggIAxAAGBYYHjIICAQQABgWGB4yCAgFEAAYFhgeMggIBhAAGBYYHjINCAcQABiGAxiABBiKBTINCAgQABiGAxiABBiKBTIKCAkQABiiBBiJBdIBCDU3NDJqMGo0qAIAsAIB&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:5c87a1bb,vid:Lk3l_L-VJ3w,st:0

That is obvious. Belle was the best hitter in the game for a short period. Jackson was just a player that was fun to watch.

He was the most exciting athlete I ever watched.

I agree, but it wasn't looking good for Olson even before we learned about the surgery today.

Who doesn't like to watch the fist pump and strut off the mound after a strikeout. 😉 Seriously though, is watching a three-yard gain up the middle really very exciting?

I'd be happy with 7

I think he was content with what they were doing all along. So, his level of excitement may not have changed as much as others.

I wouldn't rule out Olson to the 60 day DL. Given how little progress he seemingly has made, they may determine that won't be able to pitch for the first two months.

Wow, another Tigers signing I didn't hear about until I stepped into motwnforums. If they had just signed Verlander without signing Valdez, I would have considered it a lazy move. However, signing Valdez as the #2 and Verlander as a bottom of rotation guy is perfect.

Right, the one on one batter/pitcher match-up is what makes baseball unique and that is where the tv cameras are usually focused. Pace of action had been a problem in baseball more than lack of action. I think the pitch clock (which is really just enforcing rules which were already in place) has made games significantly more enjoyable to watch. I do would like to see more balls in play, but that doesn't mean pitchers pitching and batters batting is inaction.

I agree with you on the part of the 17 games in football. Each game is more important and it's easy for fans to watch one game a week. I don't see football as having a lot of action though. Often we sit around for a long time just to see a three-yard run up the middle. Then when something exciting happens, there is a penalty or a challenge. I find it to be tiring most of the game. It's a good sport betting though.

There is a lot of standing around in football too. I think that sport has benefitted from betting longer than any of the major American sports.

I like ranked choice, but it might be too complicated for a lot of voters.

Blogging is fun and I appreciate the work it takes to keep one going regularly even it's just writing opinions. I don't believe she makes any money off of it. I just get a little annoyed when I see certain bloggers frequently showing up on my timeline like they have inside info. I'm not blaming her for that though. There were probably people that didn't like me showing up on their timeline when I was blogging a lot too.

Mike Trout was on a track to be the next superstar? He was best player in the game for five staight years and was a top 5 player 9 times. It's a shame that he can't stay healthy now, but he more than earned the superstar label.
